In case we don't hear it, this 24-year-old version will do just fine:

Really takes you back, huh. I believe this was the very first new song we heard when we got the bootleg some days after that NYE-show.

Oh yes, that was a very exciting time - hoping for Axl to conquer the world again. And the actual excitement of new songs...

[Michael]

They're on now

[Spirit]

Thanks Michael!

[Michael]

Thanks Michael!

You're Welcome - so nice to finally find a livestream! 

[Spirit]

Last couple of songs:

Rocket Queen
New Rose

[Spirit]

Thanks Michael!

You're Welcome - so nice to finally find a livestream! 

Yes, it's been a while. Hopefully more common when the European dates come around

[Spirit]

Perhaps now, Axl sounds quite good

[Spirit]

Knockin On Heaven's Door now. I must say, the joy of this song has come back for me once they condensed the song more.

[Spirit]

Slash sticks with the Flying V, I like it

[Michael]

I really hope for some good videos on YouTube later!

[Spirit]

Since I opened the livestream:

Rocket Queen
New Rose
Perhaps
Knockin' On Heaven's Door
Civil War

[Spirit]

Was the livestream going for long before RQ?

[Michael]

Was the livestream going for long before RQ?

no it's been going since the beginning I think... 10:25 local time (1 hr ago)

And only 98 viewers! Hope the stream keeps going...

[Spirit]

Is it me or are the backing vocals higher in the mix during this tour?

[Michael]

Maybe it is just the audio on the phone picking up details...

[Spirit]

Maybe it is just the audio on the phone picking up details...

Might be, but I've noticed on most videos from the whole tour.

[Michael]

Setlist so far:

Welcome to the Jungle
Bad Obsession
Mr. Brownstone
Slither
Live and Let Die
Yesterdays
Absurd
Hard Skool
Rocket Queen
New Rose
Perhaps
Knockin' on Heaven's Door
Civil War
Slash Guitar Solo
Sweet Child o' Mine

I really dig the changing up on the songs

You may be right, my hearing is not that great anyway!   

[Spirit]

I really dig the changing up on the songs

Yeah, this tour has been more to the liking of "not having a setlist". Even if some have claimed that on previous tours, it was basically the same show over and over. This time around I think they've truly started to mix it up a bit.

[Spirit]

Axl should just sing the last part of Coma with his normal deeper voice. His higher register barely "registers" in the soundscape..

[Michael]

Yeah, or a little softer and finish the song strong...

[Spirit]

Great power in Axl's voice in the Patience outro

[Spirit]

DTJ very late in the set

[Michael]

yeah it's crazy - that's where KOHD should have been...but no complaints from here! 

[Michael]

Oh My Michelle!

Not too shabby vocal sound from Axl on My Michelle and You're Crazy!

Thanks!

[Six Strings]

Was You're Crazy the Appetite or the Lies version?

[Spirit]

Was You're Crazy the Appetite or the Lies version?

The Appetite version

[Six Strings]

Was You're Crazy the Appetite or the Lies version?

The Appetite version

Thanks, I've always preferred the Lies one, but not complaining. Hope everyone had a blast there.

No CD songs so far... has that happened before?

Not since July 1993, I'd reckon.
